I'm not digging the polished wheels. Plus they wouldn't match the rest of the bike. My bike is all carbon fiber accents and black. I have to really think about the CF wheels. Like I said I want them, but I have to justify getting them.

polish your wheels
meh doenst look good IM.


As far as carbon fiber rims you gota think that they are designed for track use only. I've heard they can stress fracture after a while on riding the streets through pot holes and wheelies ect. just something to think about "IMO" if you want something different powder coat your rims to match any way you like, that always looks awesome.

there is no justification for spending 3,000+ dollars on wheels...either you just do it...or you don't....

I don't regret anything I spent on my bike.....can I justify any of ...nope.

I think I will leave the wheels; they are already black and match the bike nicely. This weekend I will order the red lines. Like I said hopefully the red doesn't look like crap.

definitly frame sliders, maybe add a yoshi header and turn that slip on into a full exhaust, def PC on the rear passenger assembly, maybe some CF accents like tank pad or tripple tree cover(Real CF not the cheapo), Wave rotors, a custom suspension tune... just some thoughts

I have cf accents (honda ones). I am going to add CF chain cover and rear hugger. Going tomorrow to get the brake lines. I'll do the PC on the rear pegs and get the rotors next month. I don't want frame sliders. IMO they are pointless. I haven't been able to find a CF Trpile tree cover. I like how the yoshi exhaust looks. The full CF of it matches with all of the other CF really well.
